Slightly Imperfect 1950s' Fischer Dubrovnik Chess Set - Chess Pieces Only- Ebony & Boxwood - 3.8 " King

Imperfect Chess Sets may have slight repairs carried out in the pieces and minute color mismatch may be observed.

Otherwise, they are of high quality like any of our typical chess sets of the same range and are in proper playable/ usable condition.


The original Dubrovnik Set was made in the fifties and sixties in the renowned master carver Jakopović's workshop. These are the pieces that Bobby Fischer proclaimed his favourite, this is the chess set that we can see him analyze with in various documentaries and photographs. He famously said ," I think it's the best chess set I've ever played on. It's just a joy to play with, a joy to hold, the definition of the pieces, the design, … it's just a marvelous set, but it's very hard to get, I don't have it."

Getting an original Jakopovic's set is almost impossible. Price of some of these sets which are in playworthy condition can run in excess of hundreds of thousands of dollars and possibly more.  

We have bought to life a precise reproduction of the original Dubrovnik with increased ballast at the base.
The Dubrovnik with its fat, chunky bases and a solid well proportioned design is a crown jewel for any chess player or collector.
Update: After feedback received from many chess collectors and players from the chess community, we have made revisions to the rook which has now a straight body and shank as compared to the tapered variant which was sold earlier.

Beautiful Dubrovnik Set

I’m really happy with 1950s Fischer Dubrovnik set. The pieces look great on the board and have a nice feel in hand. Every piece was individually wrapped and the delivery was fast. Overall a very good experience.

1950s' Fischer Dubrovnik Chess Set - Ebony & Boxwood - 3.8 " King

A truly beautiful chess set. The Knights, Bishops, King, and Queen are unique. The very wide base makes these chessmen very stable on the board. It's not hard to believe that this model was greatly appreciated by the great Bobby Fischer!
A huge thank you again to Royal Chess Mall for making this "little gem" available at a reasonable price and so quickly.

Perfect imperfect set!

Fantastic pieces! Not sure what’s slightly imperfect about them. Nicely carved, well weighted and a joy to play with. Will definitely consider buying more imperfect sets if they are of the same quality!

👍👍👍

This is my first chess set that I bought from India. It is the most expensive chess set that I own. I really like it. It is simple and elegant. It is a chess set suitable for playing with friends, for studying and even for displaying on the coffee table in the living room. Indeed the chess pieces have some imperfections but I want you to know that they are difficult to notice.
